After many requests, we have designed a carved top version of the legendary Tele® shaped guitar body. Most carved top
bodies require a laminate top but as with the Alder body above, we can use a standard sized body blank to carve the body from. Not only is this a great design option, but it is also more economical to produce and available at a lower price point than most carved top bodies.

Now, if you would like a fancy wood laminate top, we can, of course, accommodate your wood desires there as well! Also, check out the Hollow construction option for reduced weight and the F-Hole options for cool looks!

Our "In Stock" selection has thousands of custom bodies and necks ready for purchase! These are the same quality as our custom built items. We pre-build many popular items and pass the savings on to you. Simply click on the image above to view and order today.

If you cannot find what you desire in our "In Stock" selection, we would be very happy to simply design it for you! Depending on your exact specifications, most items from this category only take about 4 to 6 weeks for us to make! Having it your way is what "custom" is all about and our skilled craftsmen are second to none!
